Beyond working the ugly nightshift, do any of you enjoy you're work? It sure doesn't ever sound like it.

I suppose thats a good point, it is easier to complain when plenty of others are in the same field. Just looks unpleasant from my outsider's perspective.

To be perfectly honest...

-My job is dull and encourages brain rot

-Sleeping days and working nights can be linked to any number of health problems

-I have no social life because most of my friends are day people and I often don't feel like "doing stuff" on the few nights I have off (even though I'm awake).

The only real attraction of this job is that I don't have to deal with as many people or work under the scrutiny of my manager.
I keep thinking about changing jobs but right now I'm not at the top of my game for other computer technical type jobs and I really don't want to work help desk anymore if I get out of this one.
With the economy as it is, I'm going to cling to the security for a bit longer anyway.

actual emergency medicine I enjoy. However my support staff tonight sux. So far I have plaed nurse, clerk/registrar, transporter and phlebotomist. When I have good staff things can get done and we can clean out the room.

Whats frustrating is having crummy staff and then working fast track and having about 75% of people here for non emergent stuff. So far I have had about 4 out 15 peopel with truly emergent stuff. Those people I like seeing becasue they have a problem and I can usuaily fix it.

I worked night shift a couple years ago at walmart of all places. Not only was it a shitty job but the night work life helped to destroy my relationship, my social life, and my grades in college. When I was finally done with that job my gf of 3 years and I were finished, so ever since I have been nothing but focus on work and school.

Now that school is done and I have no job, I am bored a hell.
